That’s absurd.

Sweetie, money won’t buy love.

Either they love their kids of they don’t. When you love your kids, you’re already doing this stuff.

“Either they love their kids of they don’t. When you love your kids, you’re already doing this stuff.”

Intelligent response!

Here we go again! Where have Bloomberg and the Rockefeller Center been hiding out for the last forty or more years? Many of us already have gotten the picture that pouring dollars upon dollars into the rescuing and rehabilitation of the "downtrodden" members of society has not solved the problems.

For obvious reasons, a large part of the black community suffers the deepest problems. While some believe that handouts in the form of welfare and affirmative action will benefit them, enough time has passed where we can see that, basically, nothing has changed. If anything, their plight, especially that of black men, has gotten worse.

I'd like to believe there is an answer, yet we will never solve the problems if we continue to believe that money is the answer.

$50 for getting a library card or $100 to take a child to the dentist—that could make a big difference. If anything the parents should be fined for not doing this in the first place. gimme gimme society.
